Methadone Clinic, Tacoma, WA: We work with area rehabs for continuity of care.
According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMSHA):
“Methadone and buprenorphine, when administered at the appropriate dose, “occupy” the brain receptor sites affected by heroin and other opioids. As a result, they suppress withdrawal symptoms, block the euphoric and sedating effects of opioids, and relieve the craving for opioids that is a major factor in relapse.
"Methadone and buprenorphine are long-acting opioids and pharmacologically dissimilar from short-acting opioid such as heroin and oxycodone or hydrocodone. With stable dosing and in the absence of other medications that may produce euphoria or sedation, these medications do not cause euphoria or intoxication, thus allowing a person to lead a normal life.
"The appropriate dose is determined by a certified health care professional in conjunction with the patient and is calibrated to the individual’s medical and physiological needs. Once individuals are stabilized on the appropriate dose, they may be maintained on that dose for as long as medically necessary, as is the case with other medications for chronic health conditions.”
